Geneva's Famous Chicken and Cornbread Co.
Geneva's serves traditional Southern cooking built around chicken and cornbread, on East Victory Drive. It appears in both of Savannah's Black-owned business directories.
Over 50 Savannah: Eastside
Waters Avenue, Skidaway Road and East Victory Drive, east of the park. This is where Trick's BBQ landed on its third address in two years, and where locals send you for fried chicken.
Randy's Bar-B-Q
Randy's is a walk-up barbecue window on Wheaton Street known for ribs and chicken with a tangy mustard-style sauce. Listings describe it as cash only, open midday, and often sold out before mid-afternoon.
Savannah Fried Chicken
A takeout counter on Bona Bella Avenue that locals say has fried the best chicken in the city since the 1980s. Commenters add that the name undersells it ... the same kitchen turns out Chinese takeout and crab rangoon alongside Southern fried food.
Sisters of the New South
Kenneth and Vicky Brown founded Sisters of the New South in 2009 on Skidaway Road. The site says the cooking is built on family recipes passed down for generations ... Vicky's sisters helped shape the idea and her mother, Johnnie Mae Bing, guided the kitchen in the early days. A second room is open on the Southside at 8820 Abercorn St., phone (912) 208-8065.
Trick's BBQ
Trick's is on its third address in two years. It cooked for years out of an old gas station at 2601 Bull Street in Starland, moved to 1902 Bay Street after that property sold in summer 2024, lost that lease at the end of December 2025, and reopened in 2026 at 1218 Waters Avenue at Henry Street. Eat It and Like It says it is cash only and sells until the meat is gone, usually before dinner. No source read here names the wood or the style.
